SONNET.
SIGNS OF THE AUTUMN NIGHT.

Lo! many signs proclaim the night begun
The new moon floating on the spangled height
Like bright feather-in his hurried fight
Dropped from pinion Of the fleeing sun
The monkish cricket, than whom nOiSier none
His chant uprising in some insect rite,
Helped by the glOE-worm with his cenSer-light
Whose flame is SCant, whose work is almost done
The orchards softly sounding with the tread
of mellow apples-and from some lone dale
The glare-eyed OWL outshrieking a weird tale
OF darkness, deSolAtion and the dead
Urged by the whirlwind sShrill imperiOus breath
The phantom leaves, fierce in their dance o
death!

IT WAS thought that realism on the stage
had reached its climax when tank hold
ing j, coo gallons Of water was introduced
into play now running in New York for
the purpose Of giving the hero a chance to
rescue the heroine in a thoroughly limp
and watery condition. Our English eOus-
ms have taken long step ahead of Us in
this matter, however, and have put a steam
roller on thc stage, this being the feature
of play entitled Is Lille Worth LIVING"
originally produced at the Princess Theatre,
Bristol, England, on September l. Over
come by the intensity OF her woes, the
heroine drops senseless, and jealous wo-
man, her rival, sets the roller in motion for
the purpose OF dltteniug her to death. OF
course, the hero appears just in time to
stop the roller and save the heroiue's life

inspectors for the GEORGE party until it is
shown that this party pOlied $4,000 votes
last year. Az this application was made
as part of the deal with the Republican
managers for the purpose of securing sddi-
tional inspectors of that party, its failure
works no injustice to anyone. 1t is not

The opening and the ending of the base
ball season was singularly brilliant, and
suggests some observations. Wheeling
won SIX straight games from Steubenville,
and did not meet defeat until the second
game with Columbus, when everybody set
to wondering how it was possible. so in
vincihle did the enthusiasts think the home
team. But misfOrtnnes overlook the club,
and the first disastrous tour nearly
uueuched all the enthusiasm out OF the
cranks at home. But the disasters OF the
first part Of the season are easily accounted
for. New players were constantly being
experimental with, and il was Lot unhl
the season was pretty well advanced that
team was gotten together that did as good
work as any in the Ohio League. Next
season these drawbacks will not appear.
Mr.. Buckenbcrger, the new manager, can
be relied on to furnish a team that will
compare favorably with any in the League.
Although only few have signed, enough
have put their names to contracts to insure
a good basis. Crogan and Dunn, under
stand, have signed with the Chicago club
of the Northwestern League, and are the
only members OF the old Wheeling team
who have definitely located, although
Others have good offers.
-
Sammy Nichols, than whom better
fielder does not exist, wants TO sign with
Wheeling, as he would prefer to play at
home; and his head is not so swelled but
what be thinks another years schooling in
the Ohio League would do him some good.
He NAV play in Wheeling if he drops some
ON the consideration. Nicholson also
would prefer to play here. No new pitch
ers have vet been secured for Wheeling ex-
cent Flanagan. But Wheeling will re-
ouire something more than a good nine to
keep up the interest in the sport. What
the club most needs now is money, and as
there is a goodly portion of the new issue
of stock unsold, merchants and others who
want to see the club survive next season
must come forward and subscribe liberal
| lv The late club has served to advertise
the town, and substantial sympathy with
the new team will serve to keep the name
of the city before the country.
There is some interest manifested as TO
who will get the badge offered by Jacob W.
Grubb for the member OF the nine making
the most base hits. 1t was thought that
Nichols had won il, but | am informed
that il will likely 90 to Stencil. The Off
cial averages, which will not be made up
until the meeting of the League next
month, will have to decide the question.

/fhe Variety of Hands Encountered by !.
Professor of Palmistry.

The latest society craze is palmist1y
/ reading PERSONS character and fate
| in the lines of the hand. The lines Of
the four-in-hand have their significance.
also, as a man discovers, when he han.
| dies them for the first time.
Palmistry was all the rage in Paris
two or three years ago, and it has only
recently struck New York, just as the
Paris fashions get here after they
have ceased to be the mode in the French
capital.
The soirees of our ultra-fashionables
will be enlivened by hand-reading this
winter. A very distinguished professor
has recently arrived from the other side,
and his services are already in great
demand among le bosto7s. Ariatocratic
ladies hold out their beautiful hands to
have the lines traced, and he congratu.
lates himself that his lines have fallen
in pleasant places. Beau1 will grow
jealous of him, and study palmistry
themselves, so that his services may be
dispensed with.
Complications will arise, there is no
doubt Of it. a young man will say to
a young lady: "Give me your hand,
please She will blush, hang her
head and whisper: "Ask pa" Then he
will be compelled to marry her or stand
trial for breach Of promise. Or she
may cry, Indignantly: "How dare, you!
You know I anu engaged to another. "
He can get out of it by saying: "Par-
don, Miss, / asked for your hand to
study the lines of life"
Professors of pa]mistry are turning
up everywhere. Some Of chem are
turning up trumps, others turn UP miss
ing when tho hall receipts are small,
and they are compelled to jump their
hotel bills.
1t is curious the variety OF hands
there are, when you think of it. There
is the ''big hand'' that a gambler deals
a victim whom he intends to fleece; the
little hand, and the little behind hand,
SC often remarked among clerks III the
morning; the ''full'' hand, who wants
the other hands to knock off and get
drunk, too; raw hand, that must be
handled tende1ly; a railroad hand,
whose lines are trunk lines when he is
in the baggage department. a second
hand, or q secondhand watch; "hands
around'' at a ball, and the Dutch waiter
in a saloon who Hans around the beer;
Will Carleton, who writes a good farm
hand; a deck hand, which an expert
dealer picks out Of the deck himself,
etc. Then there is the dock hand, en-
ployed by the "doc" who cures by the
laying on Of hands; made by hand, for
service: and the handmade, who goes
out to service; the hand grenade, for
blowing people up, and She hand-organ
that is blown up; the give-1s-your~
hand" nuisance, who deserves q hand
spike, etc.
When it comes to palmistry you will
find us con hand as much as though
we were brought up by it.--1s@aa
